It's really an L2TP issue, rather than a plain PPP issue, and the
current code doesn't support L2TP. (Though there are patches to do
so.)

Without looking at the L2TP code, it's hard to say. By default, pppd
would necessarily do exactly "lcp renegotiate always", and it would
take effort (on the part of the L2TP patch) to make it do otherwise.
